It often happens that people go out to play a variety of games of chance with a certain amount of money, but in the end they spend everything if they are gone. How to prevent which technique you base yourself on to spend no further. It's hard to just give up, people persistent in gambling that day, so they can't just tell themselves they'll try tomorrow. Why is this difficult? Is it because of greed?
actually we all have different views when it comes gamblers. And for me i understand why some of them didn't make a rest to stop playing. because in my view for them time is the most important and that how they set their limits, wherein because of being busy also in another work thats why they keep forcing to play just to regain losses or to obtain profits in small of time.  .in fact that's what I'm  doing also when i have a vacant time. Lol  Wherein just to make more profits and etc.  I don't mind what will happen. but it doesn't mean i have no limitations because it all set.  And my vacant time is one of my limit when it comes gamble. .
it could also be caused because it has become a daily hobby, right? it might be a good thing for them to fill free time, especially if it is a gamble that is concerned with sports. it can stimulate adrenaline and be an interesting spectacle. Some people might continue to do it because they want to cover up their losses, but things like that are really hard to stop, especially if you have enough free time.

I think that when we lose a small amount we don’t care much and we don’t restrain ourselves from continuing to play.A good thing to do to restrain yourself from not playing again is to place the sport bets you will play and then go out with friends or family and do not think about betting anymore for the day until you see the results,this is what I do.It works so far for me in sports.I don’t know about roulette and slots.

Going with friends or families won't help much expecially if they are players/gamblers too.
They might motivate you to play more and disregard the loss as being small. Thus, convincing you that the next play will bring big wining. Before you know it, you have played more than you expected to put in.


That is why we need to control ourselves from those who ask us to play more. If we cannot control ourselves, we will use our time to play gambling longer than we can think, and we will spend more money to gamble. If we are going to gambling places with our friends, we need to tell them that we are not going to spend too much time and money in the gambling place because we care about ourselves. We should remind our friends too, so they don't have to spend more money, and we can prevent big losses.

I believe that every gambler has his own reasons to gamble.  Someone is trying to earn money and it is very rarely possible to do it, while someone has a sports interest.  But there are people who experience special pleasure from gambling, while there is a high probability that in this case, gambling is practically addictive and comparable to a disease.  And if such a person experiences problems and loss of funds, then he himself will never find the strength to confront himself.
I sincerely agree that gambling can be very addictive but gladly, over 80% of gamblers are not suffering from addiction because they understand the concept of clarity of purpose. If you understand the reason to which you are gambling then I do not see any bone of contention.

The idea is to know the right point necessary to put a stop to a game. It's as simple as that.  Those gambling for money also understand when to pause their game and same goes to those playing for fun. The people who find it difficult to quit are confused set of people in my opinion and I believe they need a better understanding of gambling.

First of all they need to be happy if they lost small amount while doing this because most people's greediness and chasing habit will let them to go hard as much as they can until they lose everything.Yes it is going to be harder if we lose our money but realizing that it is not new or not only happening with you will ease the thing and the right thing to do is stop gambling when the lost amount is small.

i don't need to restrain myself from gambling because i know my limit,i can also carry myself to refuse any form of greediness and lust to win big or lose big.

before gambling i condition my mind to not look for big winnings instead just enjoy the game and dont let gambling eats me

having those?i am free from those bad effect mentioned
This should be the mindset of all gamblers, you can carry your self and manage it well from gambling and of course know the limit that you have. It is very simple that gamblers restrain their selves because of the greediness and lack of control over their selves. Anyway, looks like all replies that I read in previous replies was all saying it is because of greediness which is too obvious. Just enjoy and don't chase money in gambling.

What I doing sometime is playing with my wife,we go to casino together or even online gambling so she will be telling me if the amount spent is enough .
And also if we are in winning,she will ask me to go home and stop playing so we saved the money and not letting lose everytime .i don’t know if someone’s doing the same but for me?its my way of saving myself from becoming greed


This is another good idea of going out with family if you cannot resist yourself and still want to play. So your family will let you know and will ensure you move away after certain amount if lost. This way you would be in a fair deal of leveraging the gambling and also restricting the losses as well.

The way I handle things is as follows (as a poker player).

First I'll play a low stakes table for a while just clearing up the fishes, getting myself warm before heading over to the 5/10 or 10/20 table.

Here, I'll sit at the table that has the most fish and least pros (if known). This automatically reduces my odds of losing by a large degree.

Once done, I'll set myself a threshold of how much of my stack I'm willing to lose, e.g. 50-75%, depending on who I'm playing with.

If I'm against solid opposition, I'll cut my losses at 50%, whereas if I'm just getting a bad beat against noobs I'll hang in there until 75%.

I know the statistics, so it's not hard for me to cut my losses, since I know that my wins represent an average across time. I can take the hit.

Completely stopping will depend on how you do look out towards gambling,majority would had that main motive which on making money thats why losing either big or small doesnt matter or wouldnt be cared at all until you blown up your entire capital and thats the time you do completely stop for that day but if you do already have other funds then you would surely comeback on another day.
I have seen many gamblers who are all finding it hard to stop even their main motive is entertainment and not making money out of gambling. I mean it would be too hard for all the gamblers and it does not need to be only hard for the gamblers who gamble for money. Gambling's addicting nature play a role making gamblers persisting with gambling and that addiction may happen when you gamble for money or you gamble for fun; no exceptions.

I guess quitting gambling completely could be the only solution for not spending money in gambling. Because, all gamblers may fail one day or other in controlling them from spending big money in gambling.

It's hard to just give up, people persistent in gambling that day, so they can't just tell themselves they'll try tomorrow. Why is this difficult? Is it because of greed?
There are lots of other factors which are influencing gamblers to spend more, but I too guess greed must be the prime one for a pushing a gambler to get start with gambling. If there is no chances of earning from gambling then I guess there would have been a gambling industry like what we are having today. Greed plays a vital role is destroying a gambler's plan first and then a gambler's life itself too.

Mostly I redeposited my winnings and then bust it. I solve this by creating a paper wallet and just withdraw a part of the winnings to that. By doing that I can't easily redeposit and just keep the winnings.
Sounds like a working idea. Previously I have heard people are blocking gambling sites to prevent themselves from gambling. I read some ISP/modem setting are also being used for blocking gambling sites. When we gamble under parental or any family member guidelines, we may easily stop after some times of gambling, regardless of we make losses or profits.

To restrain yourself on spending a lot of money in playing or gambling, before you go to a gambling session you must set first your limits on how much you will just spend on gambling and how much also are you planning to win or to lose., because if you bring all of your money you will become greed of this and that would be bad. As a gambler I've saw and experience many times that I am a short temper and because of greediness I've lost all of my money in my pocket. I hope this lesson must teach you on how proper gambling was and how to limit yourself.

I don’t think that this practice is such common among all gamblers, maybe a few persons that are yet to master their habit of self-control. Its necessarily not greed because I have been fortunate to be in the midst of people like this and some do not even play for money but to quit is always a problem for them and I practically understand such feelings because I have been a victim before.

There was a time in my life I would plan my schedule on how I would play my game and I end up never keeping to the plan and I realized I had problems itself control. The first thing I did was to address my challenge and look out for the solution. I am glad that today I have become a better version of me.

Bring enough money on the casinos and budget your money, if you can’t afford to lose more then you must not bring huge money and don’t bring any of your credit cards. Its not easy to control yourself when you are already in the casinos, but do everything to control yourself and just have fun.
I am strongly of the opinion that an individual going to a casino house with more than enough money is one mistake you never want to make because I know for sure that there is no level of that self control would stop anyone from exhausting the money there at the casino.

The best thing you can do to be a master in controlling yourself is just to set a plan, it’s even better to be short of cash than to have more than enough that would be wasted at the casino place because you will always be tempted to try with more money when you lose, but when you are out of cash, all you will do is to dust your shoes and walk out of the place. I don’t carry my credit card about not even to a casino house that is quite too risky.
I think this is where discipline is highly necessary.  Going with extra cash or even a credit card to a casino house for someone who is disciplined is not supposed to be a problem at all because the time spent or to be spent on gambling is not meant up be decided by the money.

It is the responsibility of a player to be able to specify the number of hours he intends to spend on the game and should easily be able to say good bye when necessary. I can recall a lot of times I go to casino houses with money and return back home with the money without exhausting it not as though there are no games to play but because I choose to put a stop to the games.

If greed is the main source of why you are playing gambling then that's a problem. Being greedy makes us losing a lot of money in the end but can also lead for you to become rich it also depends on your luck, in my experience once you already hit a jackpot then you can stop and just play again on the other day.

How about curiosity? We know that when we are curious about something, we will find the right answer. I think that is happening in gambling. People tend to play because of fun things, but on the other side, people are curious about how they can win. That makes them curious about the games, and that makes them play using a lot of money. So I think it's because of the curiosity and greed that makes people cannot stop gambling. As long as they can hold themselves from those two things, they will not spend too much money.

This had been discussed here so many times, but here is my honest opinion.
Because of this, greed and they should have this self-discipline. Gambling is not a kind of chasing money nor a sort of source of income. It is a game that someone looking themselves to entertain while alone. There's nothing difficult if you apply in your self how self-discipline works and know your limit on how much you are going to spend in gambling.

Quite right, but most of people who gamble, do that to earn money. Every gambler should self realize the reason why they gamble, if answer is to earn money they should leave it asap.
